Maintain and evolve the data flows used by the Picto application: Azure + Databricks pipelines (ADF + notebooks) that ingest data from APIs using Ingestion Framework, transform it (PySpark/Spark SQL), and deliver trusted datasets.
Responsibilities:
- Own day-to-day operations of Picto data pipelines (ingest → transform → publish), ensuring reliability, performance and cost efficiency.
- Develop and maintain Databricks notebooks (PySpark/Spark SQL) and ADF pipelines/Triggers; manage Jobs/Workflows and CI/CD.
- Implement data quality checks, monitoring & alerting (SLA/SLO), troubleshoot incidents, and perform root-cause analysis.
- Secure pipelines (Key Vault, identities, secrets) and follow platform standards (Unity Catalog, environments, branching).
- Collaborate with BI Analysts and Architects to align data models and outputs with business needs.
- Document datasets, flows and runbooks; contribute to continuous improvement of the Ingestion Framework.
Requirements:
